Modifying DOM Content and Attributes

Summary

The video explains DOM manipulation techniques in JavaScript, focusing on adding elements to the page. It shows how to select the body element using document.body. The append() method allows adding strings or elements directly to the body. In comparison, appendChild() requires a node and produces an error if a string is used.
